We were traveling with a 75 year-old grandmother and her son and his four children ages 13 through 19. Laura was our guide, and she was great. She was very patient with the 13-year-olds and the 75-year-old. The dry suits work wonderfully and the only part of me that got cold was my hands. This is a once in a lifetime experience and definitely worth it. Beautiful. We had a cloudy day, it would probably be more spectacular on a sunny day.

We’ve done a lot of scuba diving, but anyone can do this. Very relaxing floating along the surface in a slow current with incredible visibility. Water is barely above freezing but you only feel it on your hands and face. Excellent guides lead small groups through the chasm. Nico did an amazing job.

We had an amazing experience scuba diving in the Silfra Fissure with Arctic Adventures Iceland, and a huge part of that was thanks to our guide, Franceska—she was absolutely amazing. From the very beginning, Franceska went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. She warmed up our gloves, helped us with our dry suits, and brought such genuine excitement and enthusiasm to the experience. This was our second cold-water dive, and her calm, supportive presence made all the difference. Yes, the water was really cold—there was even snow next to the fissure—but despite that, the dive was incredibly enjoyable. We were definitely cold, but it was 100% worth it. What truly stood out was Franceska’s genuine care for us. She always put our comfort and safety first, which made the entire experience feel personal and well-managed. Her positive energy and professionalism turned a challenging environment into an unforgettable adventure. If you’re considering diving Silfra, I can’t recommend Arctic Adventures—and especially Franceska—enough!

This was AMAZING. The suits are an experience in and of themselves, but kept us very dry and very buoyant. The water was unbelievably clear and Nail was incredible, especially with my mom. The time passed so fast, I could have kept going for much longer. I soaked up every moment I could exploring the lagoon after the Silfra. Unreal.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, helped us get all of our gear on and be as prepared as possible. I was not as cold as I expected (it was cold but not terrible). Pretty scenery and a unique experience.

Most bus tours will stop at this national park for about 30 minutes. You need at least 2 hours to walk around this beautiful site. Our guide was Thorir who was so kind and accommodating. My friend, my 18 year old son and I went with Thorir and absolutely enjoyed his explantation of the place. He also waited with us as we photographed our other family members snorkeling on a separate tour at the park. Would highly recommend this if you want aelaxed and enjoyable private tour!

Soooooo cool. The water is cold and the gear is heavy but it’s a once in a lifetime experience! We were in the water for 30 minutes which was a good amount of time and put on/took off gear for the rest of the time. Total time was approx. and hour and a half

Crazy cool experience! Very cold, but very worth it! Our guide, Valentina, was great! Would definitely recommend.
